Before rebinding, the book was covered with a Latin manuscript on vellum with tacketed cover attachments on spine, remains of 2 ties on fore-edge, and initials "B.R." handwritten on spine (kept in a separate folder with the book); inscription "Sermo[ne]s Sti Augus[ti]ni" on upper edge reading from spine to fore-edge; repaired; rebound; in a tailored box. Bookplate of Giovanni Puccinelli Sannini; purchased in 1925, according to Mrs. Folger's files.
